The Cleveland Browns’ defense was ranked as the top unit in the NFL just two seasons ago. Last year, there were the double”I’s”: issues and injuries.
Several players had a great season, whereas others regressed. Some athletes became injured once again, and when the year was over, their contract was up, and the team simply didn’t call them back. Players such as Mo Hurst are really good at what they do; they just can’t stay on the field.
One player who had a down season was cornerback Martin Emerson, Jr.
Emerson was viewed as a sure-fire candidate for the Pro Bowl if he continued playing like he did.
